    How do I keep CS4 from creating _notes on my server?

    talbot Community Member

      When I do 'puts' CS4 automaitically creates a _notes folder on my server. I don't use notes (a short explanation might help me decide if I need to use it) so would prefer that the folder not be made.

      So, is there a way to change the default because I cannot find it in preferences.

       

      Thanks in advance!

          You control _notes on a site-by-site basis. Open the Site Definition dialog box by selecting Site > Manage Sites. Select the site name, and click Edit. Access the Advanced tab/button at the top of the dialog box, and select the Design Notes category. There's an option in there to Upload Design notes for sharing. Deselect it.

           

          The _notes folder is used for a wide range of purposes. As the Site Definition dialog box says, Design Notes are used for integration with Fireworks and Flash. What it doesn't say is that the _notes folder is also used for site synchronization. If Maintain synchronization information is selected in the Remote Info category of the Site Definition dialog box, the _notes folder will be needed on both the local and remote computers.

            Thanks David. I didn't even notice there was a tab in the manage sites dialog.
